Keystone Symposia Board of Directors

Keystone Symposia is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors composed of distinguished leaders from across academia, industry, and other scientific and non-scientific sectors. The board meets throughout the year to provide guidance and direction to Keystone Symposia staff, and to participate with the larger Scientific Advisory Board in the determination of future conference topics and organizers. Members serve 3-year terms, and up to 3 consecutive terms. New board members are identified and recruited by the Nominating Committee of the Board and elected by the full Board.
